Rotate

With the “Image rotation” button (1) at the top left portion of the window, we can rotate the different images in Street View by 360°, in the same way as we turn our heads.

 

So, if you click on the right arrow on the button, you can rotate the image to the right, click it again, and then turn to the right.
I think you need to click eight times to complete the entire circle.
The same thing goes for the left arrow on the button. Just that it turns to the left. Makes sense, right?

 

Depending on where you’ve rotated the view, the guy in the window will also change.

 

Moving Forward / backward, left / right

We can go forward, backward, left or right with the help of the arrows on the ground.

I will try to get to the market in “Sint-Niklaas”.
In order to do this, I click in the photo above.
My experience says that its best if you do it in small steps, otherwise the image is will black out completely and you need to start all over again.

 

And we go further and further, by clicking on a higher position, in the view.

 

Now I can be at peace. I am in the market.

 

We’ll go further down the “Stationstraat”.
When you come to a point where the roads bifurcate, you need to make a choice.
We can go forward down the “Stationstraat”, or we can turn to the right.
Click the arrow on the ground to determine what direction you want to follow.

 

We continue forward, until we come to a fork.
If you want to go to the right or left, click on the arrow on the ground.
If you have gone too far, click the arrow pointing at you on the ground (1).
I’m not very far, so I click on the right arrow (2).

 

This brings me to the next street.
You can use the button to adjust your position.

There’s one more thing.
You will find a circle around the “Image rotation” button(1).
When you click and drag this circle around, you will be pivoted as if you were at that particular spot.

Awesome!
